Feel Better and a sketch

I needed a feel better card and decided to pair it up with a sketch challenge on Paper Wings. It is a lovely sketch and if you want to play along you can visit my fellow Angel Nichole's blog to check it out, since she posted it there too!



I had so much fun doing the "rock and roll" technique. I inked up my stamps with Versa Mark and then rolled Rich Cocoa Memento around the edges. You can do this with different colors, so give it a try some time!

Have a wonderful day! Thanks for looking, let me know what you think!

Stamps: Label Lingo, Friendship Strips, GWP(retired)

Just Because

I love when I get to disappear into my craft room to play... and that involves working around a very busy four year old boy. So when my husband says go for it, I go! So I've been listening to giggles and shouts as they take on the world... atleast in a Wii game.... downstairs. I wanted to play along with a motivational sketch on Paper Wings... check out the gallery, awesome examples of TAC stamp sets in use... and thought that this cute little guy was perfect since my boy is on my mind! This is for Laurie's Motivational sketch, SK10. I colored him in with PrismaColor Pencils and blended with OMS. I am really starting to love the VersaMagic inks, such pretty colors and you can do different things with them. I used Night Sky, Gingerbread, and Brick Red here.

Thanks Mama Monkey for the photo taking tips you gave me... had to improvise and will go get some poster board right away! But the picaso fix was great!

Hope that you enjoy, let me know what you think!

August Angel Art Blog Hop!

Woo Hoo!!!! My first ever blog hop featuring some of the newest TAC stamps available. I've had a blast creating this card, and I can't wait to see what the other talented ladies have to share with us as well!

This is the Hit the Beach stamp set, I just adore it and think they are so cute! I used Versa Magic Dew Drops ink to sponge the sand and water, and then water colored the sky by picking up the ink from an acrylic block with a water brush. The image is colored with PrismaColor pencils, blended with OMS, then cut out and popped up. The flowers at the bottom are part of the Friendship Strips stamp set, stamped with the same Versa Magic ink colors, cut out and popped up with an added dab of Icicle Stickles to the center for some bling!

Let me know what you think, and go check out these other

Angel Blogs to see what they created for the hop!
